I enjoy running, skiing, and whitewater kayaking, and interacting with many of the people that make up the subcultures of these activities. I enjoy traveling and backpacking because I am captivated by other cultures and meeting many different diverse types of people. In addition, wild-water kayaking is a major interest of mine as I am very invested in enjoying and preserving nature. I am not a fan of moderation. take pride in my relationships, responsibility for my actions, and hope to train, study, and excel in everything I do.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am interested in couch surfing because I believe very much in the benedits of having friends around the world.
Music, Movies, and Books
I am actually interested in almost all different genres of music. I listen to indie rock, rock and roll, and electronica. My favorite bands include the beatles, the rolling stones, the sword, Metallica, One Republic, Coldplay, and awolnation. I love both drama and action movies. Recent movies I have enjoyed include: Birdman, Whiplash, the Wolf of Wall Street, Conspiracy Theory, and the Avengers. My favorite books include the wild by Cheryl Strayed. (I would also highly recommend it) I also enjoy Malcolm Lewis, as I am also highly interested in investing and I feel that Lewis is a great story teller.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
In the summer of 2013, my friends and I traveled to Ottawa and Quebec Canada, to kayak the whitewater deep in the wilderness. On the Malbae river, I was able to have the honor of kayaking over a 35 foot water fall. The 10 days that I spent in Canada was one of the most amazing experiences that of my life.
